The Makeup Remover

Yeon L: The Makeup Remover: Volume 1

The Makeup Remover: Volume 1

The real competition is just getting started, both inside and out. . . . After successfully passing the preliminary round of Face-Off Cinderella, wallflower Kim Yeseul feels a bit more confident in herself, thanks to makeup artist Cheon Yuseong's ability to transform her looks. Now, in addition to the show's cosmetic challenges, the duo must face a new obstacle: keeping Yeseul's identity a secret on live TV. To hide her face during broadcasts, Yeseul dons a costume of her favorite bunny character, Toseul. But the other contestants won't let her fly under the radar so easily - especially not Ju Heewon, who's still seething after being rejected by Yuseong. Can Yeseul make it through the next round without being discovered - or worse, sabotaged by another contestant? Volume 2 collects episodes 15-29 of the webcomic The Makeup Remover.

The Makeup Remover: Volume 2

She might have the plainest face in the country . . . and that’s exactly why he wants her. Lee Yeon’s beloved webcomic is now available in English print for the first time. Kim Yeseul has always heard that everyone glows up in college . . . so why does she feel like the least pretty college student ever?! All of her peers look effortlessly put together 24/7, but Yeseul has no idea how to put on makeup or style her hair. With neither the looks nor the confidence to stand out, Yeseul resigns herself to hiding behind her camera as she completes her photography degree. Enter Cheon Yuseong, the most sought-after makeup artist in Korea. He needs a model for an upcoming TV competition series, and he’s certain that Yeseul’s plain face is the perfect canvas to showcase his skills. Yeseul isn’t interested in fame or glory—she just wants to look pretty enough to catch the attention of her longtime crush, Seungwoo. But as Yeseul plunges face-first into the cutthroat world of cosmetics, she begins to question whether appearance really is everything. Volume 1 collects episodes 1–14 of the webcomic The Makeup Remover.

The Makeup Remover, Volume 1

Subcomandante Insurgente Marcos - bis Mai 2015 Sprecher der basisdemokratischen zapatistischen Befreiungsbewegung EZLN im Südosten Mexikos und als SubGaleano heute weiterhin eine der kollektiven Stimmen der Zapatistas in der Öffentlichkeit - spricht über den Zusammenhang von Krieg und Politischer Ökonomie, insbesondere über die politische Ökonomie als Fortführung des Krieges und den Krieg als Fortführung der Politischen Ökonomie.

»Dieser Vierte Weltkrieg setzt das ein, was wir Zerstörung nennen. Es werden Gebiete zerstört und entvölkert. In der Stunde des Krieges wird das Gebiet zerstört und zur Wüste. Nicht aus Zerstörungswut, sondern um es zu rekonstruieren und neu zu ordnen. (...) Nach der Zerstörung muss aufgebaut werden. Die Rekonstruktion macht aus den Gebieten einen anderen Ort. Einen Ort, den die Gesetze der Märkte bestimmen.« (SCIM)

Die vorliegende Textsammlung zeichnet die Kontinuität innerhalb der Theoriebildung der Zapatistas von 1994 bis zur heutigen Zeit nach und bietet so die Möglichkeit, ihre selbst geschaffene Autonomie und internationalistische Praxis kennenzulernen. Wie sie selbst sagen: »Die Reflexion von Theorie wird Metatheorie genannt. Die zapatistische Metatheorie ist unsere Praxis.« (SCIM) Wir hören eine Stimme aus dem globalen Süden, die von Krieg, aber auch von Widerstand und Organisierung spricht.

Die vorliegenden Schriften sind sowohl Einführung in als auch Ergänzung zum Buch »EZLN: Das kritische Denken angesichts der kapitalistischen Hydra«, das im Herbst 2016 ebenfalls bei Unrast erschienen ist.

Lessons on Building a Beautiful Life

A rollicking, eye-opening history of the Star Wars franchise: an unrivaled force in popular culture that changed the way Hollywood makes movies—and that is now imperiled by many of the industry forces it set in motion From the premiere of the first film in 1977, the Star Wars franchise not only captured the imaginations of billions of people—and&nbsp;billions&nbsp;of dollars of revenue—but also rewrote the rules of the entertainment industry. Game-changing special effects, must-have collectibles, and the richness of George Lucas’s ever-expanding narrative&nbsp;gave rise to a new Hollywood model in which the boundary between screen and life collapsed. Star Wars wasn’t just a movie, after all: it was&nbsp;an alternate universe, a moral code, a way of life. Over the last half-century, Wall Street Journal reporter Erich Schwartzel explains, the Star Wars franchise has relied on an anti-establishment ethos, the savvy of executives, and the devotion of moviegoers to become a new American myth. But since its fateful acquisition by Disney in 2012, Star Wars has become a cautionary tale of Hollywood excess, and its present status as a corporate holding bears little resemblance to its origins. Drawing on scores of insider interviews and surveying fifty years of American culture and commerce, Schwartzel delivers fresh perspective on the Star Wars story, bringing to life the scrappy creative spirit of Lucasfilm’s early days; the box-office frenzy that rang in Hollywood’s blockbuster era and gave rise to a new industry playbook; and the scores of fans whose lives have been shaped by this singular force. A panoramic narrative of dreams, obsession, and power, Rebels and Empires is the untold history of Hollywood’s most storied epic.

Rebels and Empires

'Of course I'm starting my screenplay. I'm just going to Hoover the stairs first.'If you are at all interested in the nuts and bolts of story-telling and the curious workings of the entertainment industry, then this is the most informative, inspiring and funniest book on writing you will ever read, by someone who's been nominated for every showbiz award going (and then lost them all).Covering four decades in an ever-changing industry, John O'Farrell shares his writing journey from unsolicited radio sketches to huge Broadway musicals, crafting stories that have made people laugh, cry or sneak out to the pub in the interval.

Maybe If I Changed The Font?

An in-depth exploration of the network of agencies involved in policing child pornography—and what the future of security and care looks like. Facing the Child investigates the technocratic expertise in the policing of child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Mitali Thakor argues that CSAM has come to be framed as primarily a digital problem, to be resolved digitally, thereby unleashing a new form of corporatized policing helmed by global technology companies. Ambitious in scope, this multi-sited global ethnography draws on 4 years of original fieldwork and interviews with technology companies in the US, the United Nations in Bangkok, Thai and Dutch NGOs, and law enforcement in the US and the Netherlands. The book argues that in the 2010s, a network of technology companies, NGOs, and law enforcement created the notion of a “virtual child” in need of techno-solutionist saving to justify a vast expansion of surveillance technologies. The book examines how pervasive myths of child abuse online were exploited to serve the aims of seemingly disparate groups, from Christian neo-abolitionists to NGOs conducting virtual sting operations. It is this complex relationship between the care and securitization needed to fix the child victim as an object of data, concern, and rescue that the book explores.

Roman Fever

This is the incredible untold story of four women who helped win World War II by generating a wave of black propaganda. Betty MacDonald was a 28-year-old reporter from Hawaii. Zuzka Lauwers grew up in a tiny Czechoslovakian village and knew five languages by the time she was 21. Jane Smith-Hutton was the wife of a naval attaché living in Tokyo. Marlene Dietrich, the German-American actress and singer, was one of the biggest stars of the 20th century. These four women, each fascinating in her own right, together contributed to one of the most covert and successful military campaigns in WWII. Members of the Office of Strategic Services, their task was to create a secret brand of propaganda produced with the sole aim to break the morale of Axis soldiers. Working in Europe, across enemy lines in occupied China and in Washington D.C., Betty, Zuzka, Jane and Marlene forged letters and 'official' military orders, wrote and produced entire newspapers, scripted radio broadcasts and songs and even developed rumours for undercover spies and double agents to spread to the enemy. And outside of a small group of spies, no one knew they existed. Until now.

Virtuous, cool, immortal? Or deviant, pitiful, ill? Is it useful to make these judgements? Do they help us improve our lives?In a world where it feels as though the value of your life can be gauged by the goodness in your dinner, it is possible, even easy, to lose the will to live. This became particularly obvious to writer Amber Husain when suddenly, despite almost thirty years of practice, it seemed she had forgotten how to eat.Medical wisdom tries fix the problem non-eater by teaching them the rules of Good Diet. But what if the problem is precisely the narrowing of life to questions of personal goodness? Suspecting there might be more to her stand-off with food than matters of identity and diet, Husain embarked on an enquiry into the special role of eating in our relationship with the world.Combining a personal account of modern eating-disorder treatments, from the disturbing to the sublime, with a sprawling collective history of eating in hard times, Tell Me How You Eat unearths the astonishing effect of how we feed ourselves and others, not just on who we are, but on how we perceive our own political power. In doing so, it marks a bold and inspiring confrontation with our very understanding of food.

Meditations on Food and Power

Tell Me How You Eat

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.

It’s Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

Breaking New Ground

A giant of the political left, Rosa Luxemburg is one of the foremost minds in the canon of revolutionary socialist thought. But she was much more than just a thinker. She made herself heard in a world inimical to the voices of strong-willed women. She overcame physical infirmity and the prejudice she faced as a Jew to become an active revolutionary whose philosophy enriched every corner of an incredibly productive and creative life—her many friendships, her sexual intimacies, and her love of science, nature and art. Always opposed to the First World War, when others on the German left were swept up on a tide of nationalism, she was imprisoned and murdered in 1919 fighting for a revolution she knew to be doomed. In this beautifully drawn work of graphic biography, writer and artist Kate Evans has opened up her subject’s intellectual world to a new audience, grounding Luxemburg’s ideas in the realities of an inspirational and deeply affecting life.

A Graphic Biography of Rosa Luxemburg

Du leistest viel. Und wirst trotzdem zu oft übersehen.

Du bringst Ideen ein, übernimmst Verantwortung, lieferst Ergebnisse und trotzdem passiert es immer wieder: Andere werden gesehen, gefördert, gefragt. Du nicht. Nicht weil du nicht gut genug bist, sondern weil gute Arbeit allein nicht reicht, um sichtbar zu werden.

Das Problem ist nicht deine Leistung. Das Problem ist, dass niemand sie sieht.

Carolin-Anne Schiebel kennt dieses Gefühl. Sie hat es gelebt bis ein Zusammenbruch alles verändert. Was danach kommt, ist kein Motivationskurs, sondern eine ehrliche Auseinandersetzung damit, was Sichtbarkeit wirklich bedeutet: Verantwortung, Zweifel, Gegenwind und die Entscheidung, trotzdem präsent zu bleiben.

Nach diesem Buch weißt du, wie du deine Leistung sichtbar machst, ohne dich zu verbiegen. Du kennst die Muster, die dich zurückhalten und die Schritte, die dich aus dem Unsichtbarsein herausführen. Du zeigst dich. Auf deine Art. Bevor alles perfekt ist.

Für Frauen im Beruf, die aufgehört haben zu warten.

ZEIG DICH, gut sein reicht nicht

“With a perfumer’s art, Ola Salem gives us a heady concoction of travelogue, history, and culture.” —Tilar Mazzeo, New York Times bestselling author A cultural journey through the world of fragrance, weaving together ancient tradition and modern artistry to tell the untold history of our favorite perfume trends of today Scent’s grip on how we feel and what we remember is distinct from our other senses. Unlike sight, sound, taste, or touch, smell bypasses the brain’s central relay, going straight to the limbic system where we process emotions and store memories. This means that a single whiff of perfume can instantly evoke nostalgia, moving us in ways we cannot always explain. Perfume has fascinated every civilization for millennia, evolving from a tool for ancient rituals to a $50 billion global industry. But long before France bottled its fame, Arabia perfected the art of scent—not just as a measure of beauty and attraction but also as a display of power. Yes, Chanel revolutionized fragrance with No. 5, Guerlain’s Shalimar reshaped how the East was imagined, and Tom Ford’s Oud Wood brought the scented wood to the streets of London, Paris, and New York. But places like the Arab gulf, North Africa, East Asia, which gave the world much of these ingredients and techniques, have been written out of their own history. “Intimate, funny, and deeply research” (Clarissa Ward, author of On All Fronts) and based on months of on-the-ground reporting across four continents, Egyptian American journalist Ola Salem provides a first-hand account of the perfume monopoly, interrogating the “fraghead” revolution, debunking industry stereotypes, and examining what the future of fragrance will look like. From Cleopatra’s perfume factories to the modern-day Sephora counter, from the jasmine fields of Egypt to the frankincense trees in Oman, Salem takes readers on an immersive cultural journey to shine a light on the oft-overlooked corners, cultivators, and creators of the fragrance world.
